“Las week,” said Dad to Uncle Bill, “I
was groaning about the cost of all the new
school books I Jfound I had to buy for the
children.”,
“You ought not to groan about a thing
like that,” replied Unde Bill. “After all,
education is about the cheapest thing there
is.”
“Well, what did you do, get credit at the
book-sdlers?”
“Not a chasce. I happened to read in
the paper one of those little talks about
want ads. This one told about !how folks
are always saving old things—storing them
away where they’re no longer used and
soon forgotten.”
“That hits you off all right—you’re al
ways doing that” *
“Yep. This time I cashed in, though. I
sold that lawn-mower we used to use down
at the other'place and some furniture and
father’s old banjo and a few other things.
Got enough for the lot to buy all the school
books with enough left over for a pair of
shoes all around. Not so bad, eh?”

The Court Of
Last Appeal
Y OU are the judge- and the jury. Your verdict- is final. There
can be no appeal—for this is the High Court of Public
Opinion.
The wares of the world must appear before you—the product
of every factory—the merchandise of every store. Those things
that fail to measure tip to your requirements are quickly con
demned to oblivion.
The manufacturer who advertises deliberately places his mer
chandise on trial. He openly courts your critical inspection. He
invites comparison. He directs your attention to his goods and
then forces those goods to stand on their own merits. *
If he were not sure of his wares he would not dare to adver
tise. For advertising would put him to a test he could not meet,
and thus hasten the end of his business career. It would be busi
ness suicide.
You can depend on the man who advertises. He KNOWS his
product is good.
That’s one reason why it pays to read the advertisements you
find in this paper. It is through advertising that you are able to
keep in touch with the GOOD things that progressive business
mep are spending their money to introduce and to keep before
you. ’ . • -
